5. Ekuqaliseni iHubo 119, umbhali cishe wayecabanga ngokuhlangenwe nakho kukabani?

⁵ Ngokungangabazeki umhubi wabhala esusela kokuhlangenwe nakho kwakhe lapho eqalisa iHubo 119, ethi: “Bayajabula abaqotho endleleni yabo, abahamba ngomthetho kaJehova. Bayajabula abagcina izikhumbuzo zakhe, . . . kepha behamba ezindleleni zakhe; wena usiyalezile ukuba sizigcine iziyalezo zakho ngokunakekela. Sengathi zingaqondiswa izindlela zami ukuba ngigcine izimiso zakho! Khona angiyikujabha, uma ngibheka yonke imiyalo yakho. Ngiyakukubonga ngobuqotho benhliziyo, lapho ngifunda izahlulelo zakho ezilungileyo. Izimiso zakho ngiyakuzigcina. Ungangishiyi nakancane.”—IHubo 119:1-8, NW.

 6. (a) Aqhanyiswe kanjani amazwi ayinhloko kulelihubo? (b) Wayengumfundi wani umhubi, futhi lokhu kuvezwe kanjani?

⁶ Kuleso sigaba sokuqala semigqa yesiHeberu eyi-8 siqaphela amagama ayinhloko umthetho, izikhumbuzo, iziyalezo, izimiso, imiyalo nezahlulelo ezilungileyo. Kuwo wonke amavesi esiHeberu ayi-176 umhubi ugcizelela lawomagama. Ngokwesibonelo, usebenzisa igama elithi “umthetho” izikhathi ezingama-25, “izikhumbuzo” izikhathi ezingama-22, “iziyalezo” izikhathi ezingama-21, “izimiso” izikhathi ezingama-21, “imiyalo” izikhathi ezingama-20, “izahlulelo ezilungileyo” izikhathi ezingama-21, negama elihlobene nalo “umyalo” elisetshenziswe kabili kulelihubo. Naphezu kokusebenzisa komhubi lamagama ngokuphindaphindiwe angase azwakale engawomthetho, abukho ubufakazi bokuthi wayengummeli noma isazi somthetho noma ngisho umahluleli. Ngokuyinhloko wayengumfundi weZwi likaJehova elilotshiwe, iqiniso elifakazelwa ukusebenzisa kwakhe amazwi athi “izwi lakho” izikhathi eziyi-15. Uma ayeyinkosi yesizwe sakwaIsrayeli wayengaphansi komyalo waphezulu wokuba azikopishele uMthetho kaJehova wesivumelwano noIsrayeli ukuze azitadishele futhi azifundele yena siqu. (Duteronomi 17:14-18) Umhubi akazange athole ukufundisisa “izwi” likaJehova kuyisicefe, kuyisidina. Walangazelela lokho okwakungamsiza ukuba athobele umthetho. (IHubo 119:40, 131, 174) Ingabe sifana naye?

10. Ikuphi ukubaluleka iHubo 119 elikunikeza ‘iziyalezo’” zikaNkulunkulu?

¹⁰ Ngemva kokuhalalisa komhubi emavesini akhe amabili okuqala ngenjabulo yalabo abahamba emthethweni kaJehova nabagcina izikhumbuzo zakhe, uqhubeka athi: “Abangenzi ukungalungi, kepha behamba ezindleleni zakhe; wena usiyalezile ukuba sizigcine ngokwempela.” (IHubo 119:3, 4) Kulelihubo umhubi usebenzisa igama elithi “iziyalezo” izikhathi ezingama-21, kanjalo ezenza zikhumbuleke.
